The only gamer in Sri Lanka

Today I stumbled on a blog from a fellow gamer that happens to be in a bit of a pickle. If we (Portuguese Wargamers) often complain that we are low in number, take a look at:

(Excellent taste in wargaming by the way - and in books by Zach Parsons I would bet :)).

It's from a fellow that goes by the name Pnweerar (also a fellow Lead Adventurer).

Like the pioneers of old, he alone is "of the hobby" in his Country.
He is the only gamer in Sri Lanka.

I promise that if I ever find myself in a situation where I would for some reason go to Sri Lanka, I will take my 15mm Grey Aliens, hoping to face his 15mm Frog Men :)



We come in peace



Still on the subject of catching up, this time in wargaming.

Last year I read some quick rules for using little grey men in Flames of War. On impulse (damn Paypal and Credit Cards and the Internets! And then again, maybe not :)) I bought myself some little grey aliens of my very own. They arrived in glorious all metal look about 1 week later. Some dabs of the paintbrush later I had a 2000 points FoW system 15mm Grey Alien Invasion force, complete with Flying Saucer and giant Golden robots.



I, for one, welcome our new 15mm high Masters
